The bug is: unable to play as the commander (only simulation). Which making the game unplayable. ### 4/5 — 500 *2026-01-18, version 1.5.4* Please fix a bug when I go into the game a error 500 pops up please fix ### 3/5 — Need a update *2025-05-12, version 1.5.4* Need a update ### 2/5 — Bueno pero mal *2025-04-29, version 1.5.4* Buen juego, entretenido. Sin embargo estarás mil horas con problemas en los Dineros, puntos de EXP. Le falta unas buenas actualizadas ### 2/5 — Récompenses trop faibles *2024-10-13* J’ai joué au jeu il y a 10 ans, je l’ai remis car de souvenir ce jeu été super. Rien à dire sur le concept qui est top, le problème c’est les affectations et les dégâts critiques sur les soldats. Obtenir des affectations ou soigner les soldats coûte extrêmement cher par rapport aux faibles récompenses de combat. Le prix des guérisons escalade de 100 à chaque fois, impossible à tenir, et si on change de soldat ça veut dire qu’on doit en voir d’autres, et vu qu’il est extrêmement difficile d’avoir des billets, on se retrouve vite avec des soldats « nuls » et le jeu est en quelques sorte bloqué. Dommage j’adore le concept, mais je vois que le jeu n’a pas bougé d’un poil depuis 10ans… ### 2/5 — Ads bugged *2023-12-17, version 1.5.4* WAYYYY too many ads. Not only that, but I can never exit out of them when they complete so I have to restart the app every single time. Game is decent overall but this makes it almost unplayable… ### 3/5 — Missing something *2023-08-22, version 1.5.4* Is the other RAW game I could control a player and it was a munch better experience. Not a fan of just simulating a fight and not being able to play as a character in this one. ### 3/5 — Account Recovery *2023-04-30, version 1.5.4* Used to love this game when I was younger and wanted to check it out again but I forget my team name and password. Such a shame there is no option to recover the account using an email or something. ### 4/5 — Hard *2023-01-15, version 1.5.4* The game always make me battle strong people and stuff like that so can u make people be on the same level and rank as you? ### 1/5 — Bad game *2021-09-18, version 1.5.4* Unbalance pay to win and trash never download it ### 1/5 — Bad game *2021-08-12, version 1.5.4* Needs lots of improvements with the controlls ### 1/5 — Watching is boring *2021-07-22, version 1.5.4* You can’t play/control the characters. The game is completely misleading unless you read the description carefully. This game is ZERO fun. I don’t understand why anyone would bother. One round was enough for me to delete it. ### 1/5 — Boring *2021-04-16, version 1.5.2* Boring game ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — INTERNAL SERVER ERROR FIX *2026-09-03, version 1.5.4* Hit support and delete team. that’s the only solution i found. If you played years ago, sorry but you’ll have to restart. ### 1/5 — Not working *2026-02-20, version 1.5.4* Internal Server Error ### 1/5 — Not working *2025-08-07, version 1.5.4* I want to play but it doesn’t work on my device ### 1/5 — Yo *2025-05-07, version 1.5.4* Anyone still play this game? Definitely needs a new update ### 1/5 — Please fix the game resolution. *2025-01-24, version 1.5.4* I am so glad to find out this game is still on AppStore, but the game is currently not working as it is stretched and none of the button works. Please fix the issue because the game is deffo 5 stars worth! ### 1/5 — Pésima actualización *2023-10-21, version 1.5.4* Antes se podía interactuar como soldado, ahora es solo ver, horrible ### 1/5 — If I worked for HOTHEAD *2023-10-15, version 1.5.4* If I worked for hothead I wouldn’t be wasting my time… I’d be updating this game as well as the basketball and NHL with new features not just bug fixes every 2 years… do better for a community that’s made you a substantial amount of money over the years… At least I know you’ve taken mine. It’s about time someone from this company starts reading reviews and making strides to make there games better. The opportunity this game and the Big win Basketball game have to be a top game in the Apple Store is crazy if only the developers cared. ### 1/5 — Error *2023-08-22, version 1.5.4* I can’t create a team at the start ### 1/5 — Does not let me play *2023-07-07, version 1.5.4* The game does not even let me play? ### 1/5 — BEWARE *2023-05-21, version 1.5.4* The game does NOT work on iPad. SCAM ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Cool *2026-08-06, version 1.5.4* Re-downloaded the game after 10 years and what a nostalgia! Amazing game absolutely love it ### 5/5 — Weak up *2026-03-20, version 1.5.4* We need it star working on this game ### 5/5 — 안드로이드용 전쟁중인 리이벌 *2025-09-28* 안드로이드용 전쟁 중인 라이벌은 직접 군인을 조작할 수 있어서 재미있는데 아이폰용은 게임이 안나와서 많이 아쉽습니다 개발자님 제발 IOS용으로 게임 출시 해주세여 ㅠㅠ ### 5/5 — Need update *2024-09-18, version 1.5.4* Need more update, people still playing the game ### 5/5 — Are people still playing?

Players are still playing the game, the game is still the same! Loved it when as a kid I see that theres a 2084 rivals at war too, Is that the newer one? Might give it a try ### 5/5 — AWESOME GAME *2021-10-14, version 1.5.4* This was one of my favorite games as a child. Today I spent an hour looking for this game because I couldn’t remember the name!!! Only the OG’s remember this game! ### 5/5 — Pretty good game *2020-08-12, version 1.5.2* Back then when I use to play this game I was able to move the commander myself now all I can do is watch is it a bug or did you guys remove fps ### 5/5 — Muy bueno *2020-07-19, version 1.5.2* Esta muy bien el juego, pero no me deja añadir turnos a mis soldados de élite ### 5/5 — Push The Download Button *2020-04-03, version 1.5.2* Best game I have played in a while the graphics are amazing, the gameplay is action packed so I am going to play it everyday for a long time --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
